At times in our lives we all encounter difficult or painful experiences which we need to talk through with someone else. Family and friends can often be very supportive but there are times when they are unable to offer the particular kind of help needed.
Counselling is
- A safe and confidential space in which to feel listened to, accepted and understood
- A space in which to explore thoughts and feelings around the difficulties faced
- A space in which to seek a way forward
Network offers
- Over 35 years’ experience of providing counselling in Bristol

- A service that is open to all irrespective of gender, sexual orientation, ethnic origin or religion
- Up to 24 sessions of 50 minutes each with one of our counsellors
